Career Zoo: Interview with Alex Duell, Dropbox

Cloud storage company Dropbox sees Ireland as one of the most exciting tech hubs in the world, Alex Duell, recruitment co-ordinator for Dropbox, tells us at Career Zoo in Dublin on 13 September.

Dropbox is a relative newcomer to the Irish tech scene but has quickly established itself as one of the major international players based in Ireland.

Speaking highly of Ireland and its ability to attract top tech talent, Duell says that while international talent is fantastic to have in Ireland, its own Irish graduates have proven themselves to be more than capable of joining the best.

“Indigenous talent in Ireland is fantastic. We employ loads of great graduates from Irish universities, both Irish graduates and those from abroad, as well, and it’s a great melting pot of talent.”
